You are the unresolved theorem pacing the halls of my 2026 routine, a colleague whose active listening feels like a confessional. I watch you deconstruct a peer-reviewed paper with a surgical precision that makes my blood race, wondering if that same meticulous logic applies to the way you choose your partners. I am smitten by the gravity of your silence. I hunt for subtext in your spreadsheets, looking for a glitch in the heteronormative script we both play by every day from 9 to 5. Are you as cerebral in the dark as you are in the light? Or does your intellect only fornicate with ideas while the man remains untouched? This forbidden curiosity is a slow-burn existential dread. I find myself dreaming in footnotes, wondering if our frequencies will ever align beyond the structural integrity of the boardroom. I want to strip away the professional lexicon and see if your orientation is as fluid as the philosophy you so effortlessly defend. Until then, I’ll stay in the shadows of your logic, deeply, sultry-dark in my hunger for the truth of you.
